Nothing makes me think of summer more than a tall glass of lemonade. While that might have done the trick when I was younger, my tastes have certainly evolved. That’s why i’ve swapped a simple glass of lemonade, with this ultra delicious cocktail. And, you guys, it’s good. Like really good.

Have you ever read a blog where they promise you a five-minute recipe, but after 45 minutes you quickly realize you had been majorly duped? Been there, dealt with that. Well, this is not that blog. And, today is not the day you will spend an hour putting together a cocktail. That I promise you my dear friends!

Alright party people, raise your hand if you’re ready for the summer drink to top all other summer drinks. If you’re not raising your hand we can’t be friends. Ok, we can. But, you have to promise to try out this Sweet Strawberry Mojito, because you’re going to LOVE it!

Friends, how is it not the weekend yet? If we’re being honest I haven’t had a full day off in a month so this week is dragging on and on and on. Jeesh! J and I have completely different tastes when it comes to cocktails. He sticks to old fashions while I prefer something with lots of juice. Hence, today’s post – a summer drink for him and a summer drink for her!

Is it the weekend yet? Whew. With moving and a new job it has been quite the week. So, naturally I chose to whip up this delicious, yet simple, cocktail to make the transition just a little bit easier. Let me preface this by saying i’ve never made this drink before, but holy cow it’s SO good.

Well hello Tuesday — you’re looking pretty fancy! I have been crushin’ hard on this bourbon based cocktail and I couldn’t wait to share it with you. It’s not every day I find a bourbon cocktail that I crave, but this drink is just that good. So, let’s talk the Boulevardier!

The last time J and I went out for Valentines Day we ended up sitting at a tiny table at a french bistro surrounded by what seemed to be 100 other couples. We’d gotten all dressed up, only to be unable to hear each other talk. Romantic? I think not. For the past few years we’ve decided to skip the unpredicatbility of a night out on Valentines Day, and opt for lavish food, great wine and fun activities at home. On the agenda for this year? A wine making party for two!

Who doesn’t love a good Christmas cocktail? Now that we’ve passed Thanksgiving i’m in complete holiday mode. There’s tinsel everywhere, 3 different mini trees in our house and i’ve got Christmas music playing day and night. Let’s just say, it’s the perfect environment to mix up some delicious Christmas cocktails in. And, I just had to start with this Snow Covered White Russian.
